Scarecrow

Auckland city. I have always walked past this corner shop and cafe to my preferred cafe. But there lunchtime was over, expired, gone. So I returned to the cafe on the corner.

The staff member delighted with my thank you for a fine salad. Familiar accent, Rome, a lively conversation and I departed for with a free meal tucked under my arm. “See you again,”I say –
No free salad next time!
Laughter.
